Abstract
A combination process is provided which upgrades the C.sub.3 to 650.degree. F product of Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis to form gasoline product of improved octane rating by contact with ZSM-5 crystalline zeolite and hydrogenation of light fuel oil to improve its stability and color characteristics. Gaseous products are converted to alkylate in the gasoline boiling range. The yield of light fuel oil may be increased by reducing the end point of the gasoline fraction to about 320.degree. F.
